Jane Atkinson, Contemporary Lace

FRANCE 2010


Fluid forms and elegant expression can be easy to achieve in contemporary lace if you learn to play with grids, the subject of this year’s lace holiday from September 5 - 12 in France, again sponsored by Texere.

Le Vieux Monastère have laid on another fascinating package of trips around the Charente Maritime to complement the course, including a chance to visit the historical port town of La Rochelle.

A series of workshops will encourage students to explore exciting new effects with grids printed and hand-drawn for Torchon before they concentrate on a personal project, perhaps designing necklaces, swerving and warping grids for scarves or investigating natural inspiration for expressive panels.
